    Here is what Trump says about Biden being behind the trial:

    “I don’t know if Biden knows too much about it, because I don’t know if he knows too much about anything,” Trump said. “But he’s nevertheless the president so we have to use his name.”

    Get a clue, people! He just basically confessed to a smear campaign based on the premise that he doesn't really think Biden knows too much about it. Yet, he claims Biden is behind it every chance he gets. He makes no sense. You have to be real...to buy what this character says. He's playing a part.

    Phillips suggests Hochul pardon Trump ‘for the good of the country’

    Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) pressed New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) to pardon former President Trump following his recent conviction in his hush money trial.

    “Donald Trump is a serial liar, cheater, and philanderer, a six-time declarer of corporate bankruptcy, an instigator of insurrection, and a convicted felon who thrives on portraying himself as a victim,” Phillips said in a post on social platform X Friday. “@GovKathyHochul should pardon him for the good of the country.”

    He was allowed to testify. Trunp's defense team did not call him because the judge stated Smith could not opine on HIS interpretation of the law.

    Musk needs to read The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. The Romans had almost a 1500 year run and Christianity destroyed it. It only took them less than 250 years to put us well on our way. Progress, amirite?

    If this was error, it will get raised on appeal and get reversed. I bet a lot of money it was not reversible error.

    not that you know what these words mean, but if this was a problem, Trump can simply win on appeal. So why are you so worried.

    It's not 95%.

    And even if it is 95%, it's not relevant.

    Jury selection is a joint exercise between the defense and the prosecution.

    Trump isn't in jail and we don't know if they will request jail time.

    That being said, The Donald has shown zero remorse and seems like a high risk of repeating or committing other criminal acts. So maybe jail would be fitting. It wouldn't be at all worrisome.

    Republicans are whining about the judge donating to Biden, he did 1 time for $15 total.

    I mean should we recuse the Supreme court for donations?

    The Germanic tribes might have a bit more to do with the fall of Rome than Christianity.

    I laughed out loud when i read the quote from Trump, "We can't let this happen to another presodent."

    First of all, that's literally all you talk about with "The Clinton Crime Family" and now Biden. You ABSOLUTELY want to do that to everybody who won't bow at your feet.

    But more importantly, i hope to hell it happens to any president that bangs p*rn stars and tries to obfuscate payments to cover it up in the middle of an election.

    But I'm pretty sure the other 44(?) guys who've held the job are pretty safe. Its only you who's gross enough to do that, and then crass and entitled enough to think you could get away with it with impunity, you orange clown. Every other President in the history of the United States is safe.

    It sure is nice of you to praise Democrats for their objectivity. It is something we don’t see from MAGA. And republicans who are objective and criticize Trump get death threats and are called RINOs because they refuse to join the cult,

    Listening to Tom Cotton on MTP
    And he’s claiming that the only reason the DOJ is going after Democrats Menendez and Cuellar is because they have criticized Joe Biden and that Joe Biden will
    Pardon his son.

    He’s also claiming when Trump talks about his “retribution” he means by winning the election.

    Hummm…

    That is Tom Cotton projecting on what Trump will be doing if elected.

    Yeah, Joe is one weird dude. It would be much simpler to just not go after his son.

    @AroundTheWorld has a whole thread on how fascists redefine words to mean something else.

    This Republican Party is destroying everything American to protect their cult leader.
